I bought one of these just for making osso buco. I found myself using it for a lot more than just that. I make tomato sauce in it, chili, any excuse I have to bust it out, I do. I absolutely love this pot.

I've owned one of these for over 3 years now, using it daily. I've never had to sharpen (grind) it, just an occasional run along a fine steel, and it's held a wonderful edge for everyday prep. It took me a few days to get used to the handle; it's "different," but after using it for a week or so I began loving it. If you've got fatigue issues with your knife hand I'd suggest trying one of these out.
